WHERE WILL YOUR FEET TAKE YOU IN 2016?

We are looking for runners, walkers and joggers of all shapes, sizes and fitness levels to join us on a journey to Mercury in 2016! Log your miles and they will be added to our total miles as a group. Let's log enough miles to get to Mercury! You will move up the Moon Jogger rankings as you log more and more miles! Thousands of people worldwide have joined the challenge. Will you?

“We will laugh with you, cry with you, comfort you, bolster you, praise you, give you pointers, answer your questions, celebrate with you, mourn with you.. we don’t HAVE to actually see your face to care. And knowing that we all care will make the paths we share smoother, easier and more fun!!” -Carolyn Guhman, New Orleans

Once a month, we will be drawing two to three names of paid participants and will be sending them a special Moon Jogger Care Package! This could include new running shoes, running gear, gift cards, etc. When you sign up there will be a place where you can fill out your Runner's Wish List and if we draw your name we'll see what we can do for you!

Everything the full option will receive, besides the T-shirt and medal.

*A portion of all of the registration fees will be donated to one of our favorite charities: SOLES 4 SOULS! For every $1 donated, Soles 4 Souls is able to give one pair of shoes to someone who needs them. Our goal is to raise $10,000 with this event, which means we could help give 10,000 a pair of much needed shoes! How amazing is that!?!

*All shipping costs included in registration. You will receive one shipment at the beginning of our mission (January 2016) with your t-shirt and other goodies. Medals will be shipped out at the end of the year (December 2016)! Just like you get your medal at the end of a marathon, your medal will be shipped out at the end. Shipping costs are included in your participation fee. (Participants outside of the USA will be charged extra for shipping).

Just to make things clear: ALL MEDALS WILL SHIP OUT AT THE END OF THE YEAR (DECEMBER 2016). Everything else will be sent out at the beginning of January.

How It Works: 1. You sign up and set a goal for how many miles you will run in 2016 and which ranking you will achieve. 2. During the year you log your miles on our website. You’ll move up the rankings as you reach your goal. 3. Along with achieving your personal goal, all of your miles contribute to our grand total of miles to get to Mars! *Check out the OFFICIAL RULES HERE (find out how to include biking and swimming miles too)
